When you bring a dog into your life, you begin a journey...a journey that will bring you more love and devotion than you have ever known, yet also test your strength and courage. If you allow, the journey will teach you many things, about life, about yourself, and most of all, about love. You will come away changed forever, for one soul cannot touch another without leaving a mark.

​“I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.”

― Edward Everett Hale
​Debbie was born and raised in Texas. She grew up her entire life being around animals. She was deemed the cat lady for many years as she had several cats throughout her younger days. She had one dog as well growing up. Debbie jumped into rescue for several years and also running a high kill animal shelter page for a large community. She removed herself from that page due to the high stress level and switched her interests towards the care of a dog's health and how to care for her own dogs on a shoestring budget. While pets are never cheap, there are many things you can do that do not require a vet visit and save you lots of money. Debbie also enrolled in an online course on Natural Pet Care to further her knowledge. With having a pack of dogs (all rescues) now within her own home, has learned from experience the hurdles a pet parent faces throughout a dog's lifetime. From allergies to joint issues, cancer and heart disease as well as many other diseases. Debbie has learned that our pet's bodies are being overwhelmed with chemicals on a daily basis and this increases the risks of cancer and organ failure. Now she tries to teach others how they can care for their own dogs at home in many cases once a diagnosis is established as well as preventive measures so to keep your dog healthy from an early age as well. She will be clear and honest with her opinions and not try to steer anyone into a greed driven society. We must think for ourselves and learn to take better care of ourselves and our pets. That is her goal in helping pet parents, to learn everything you don't know about conventional medicine and what alternatives you may have. Her love and her life is all about the dogs. Her mission is to save more lives and extend many with health issues already established.
 
Debbie does not claim to be a professional writer. Her books are self published books. If you are looking for a book to ENTERTAIN you, these books are not for you. This is about learning.
 
These books have been written for thorough information to be given pertaining to each situation and to help pet parents doing their very best for their dogs at home without high expense of vet bills. Debbie has spent many years gathering information and doing research on what works best for your dog.
 
Her dogs are all rescues and came to her with joint issues and they are also older now.

I share in my books what I have done in dire situations pertaining to my dogs.
 
Also know, all books do not contain hardly any homeopathy at all as I do not use these, only in certain situations when nothing else is available. I use herbs and supplements for treating illness as well as healthy dogs. Learn what homeopathy is as opposed to other herbal remedies including Ayurvedic, TCM and other supplement differences used in the natural treatment of pets.
 
My books are filled with information including dosing on each for adding in supplements as well as feeding a homemade diet or treating/preventing cancer and using different modalities for joint issues.
 
As our dogs age, no matter what we do right, there is always a medical issue that will arise, so being proactive instead of reactive is your best line of defense. You will also have the knowledge to make better decisions and can handle tackling a problem. Learning is our best line of defense. ~ Debbie

I am a pet parent of a pack of dogs of all sizes. They are my life and I do everything I can to keep them healthy and happy. It's a lot of work but so are children-LOL. So they are my children with fur.  

This site provides information for pet parents looking to give their pets a better healthier life using natural remedies and avoiding toxins such as in pet foods, chemicals and unnecessary vaccines. We also offer unique gifts such as painted portraits and custom merchandise. You can learn to feed your dog by owning a copy of our book that will guide you through every step for your dog's life. We offer an online course for this as well. Be the best pet parent you can be and get on board with healthier living for you and your pets.

   This website runs off of Donations, sales from Books, Online Courses, Pet Portraits, Web Design and some extra things relating to businesses that need a little extra help in designing including logos and Custom Made To Order T-shirts. So please help keep this site up and running so that I can continue to spread the word on what we can offer our pets for a healthy lifestyle.

  I do not sell direct pet supplies. My site is an affiliate site and I put ads on my site and I get a small commission off of sales. This is in no way my means of income but every little bit helps. I depend on sales of what I have to offer and do myself that I have listed below. I am very focused on a raw diet because I believe raw and homemade diets help or rid many many food allergies and intolerances. The KEY to a healthy pet is a strong immune system. Bad food ingredients (preservatives and chemicals), vaccines and medications break the immune system down leaving it vulnerable to more illnesses and system attacks. To rebuild the immune system you must change the diet, add in supplements like digestive enzymes and probiotics, reduce vaccines, provide filtered fluoride/chlorine free water and substitute some medications with herbs and natural remedies. It isn't rocket science to do this. This information applies to people as well. So if you are willing to learn how to live better, this is where to learn.

I am Certified in Natural Pet Care (a little of everything) and spend many hours doing research. I am not a veterinarian nor a nutritionist. I am a pet parent that loves her dogs and I will do everything possible to give them the best life and best health on this planet to the best of my ability. Along this journey, I welcome you to travel into this natural world of healing, hope, and health. I hope you learn a lot here. I know you read all sorts of different stories on the web (some are good, some are bad) but what has been the most in favor and gathering the facts from some of the top holistic vets, nutritionists and drs, I have added to this site. If you have any questions at all, PLEASE feel free to contact us.
